engaged! my royal asscher & ritani e-ring!

[cinnamon013]

Your ring is so pretty! I would love to see more pictures of it. What wedding band will you be putting with it?

Your hand and that ring look gorgeous...

 

[snlee]

WOW! It''s absolutely gorgeous!

I love your setting. It looks huge on you too. Congratulations on your engagement!

 

[swingirl]

Wow! That''s beautiful!

 

[rainydaze]

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!

did i mention that is STUNNING?!? enjoy, and congratulations on your engagement!

 

[vespergirl]

Incredible and gorgeous ring! Love the stone and the setting!

HI:

cheers--Sharon

 

[Mayflower25]

THAT RING IS ABSOLUTLEY PERFECT!! Congratulations! The stone and band are beaming with light!

On another note, I haven''t yet seen that Ritani setting, but it looks very similar to a Mark Patterson''s micropave settings. You have me second guessing my decision!

 

[msbean]

ok FINALLY! i can respond! for some reason i get a ''file not found'' error when trying to access the forums here from home. it works when i''m at work though. strange.

so for those who asked, i''m pretty sure it''s a ritani since it has those little diamonds around the head - i''m attaching a picture of the profile sorry it''s kinda blurry! but yes, i haven''t seen this ANYWHERE - the other ritani micropaves all seem more channel-y with metal on the sides and mine has absolutely none. just beadset. and it''s not a full eternity either. but it has the same head as the other ritani band?

THANK you for all your responses, i totally love the ring and i''ll try to post up more poorly taken hand shots and the poor closeups we took when the stone was unset. hold on...

 

[msbean]

ok, here is another side shot again sorry about the blurriness

oh, and my ring also has what looks like fishtail/v-set from the side? do the regular ritani endless love rings have that? maybe this isn''t a ritani? but it was sitting in the ritani display at long''s?

 

[msbean]

ok, one more. i may try to take some better closeups eventually but this is the best i could do for now

this one is of the stone unset, you can sorta see the RA pattern here, but still you can''t see the sparkles and bursts of color!

Beautiful!! Congratulations on your engagement!!!

 

[Stone Hunter]

Lovely lovely stone. Your pictures look pretty good. But photos usually don''t show the diamond as well as seeing it in person. Your stone really does look very attractive.

Happy Engagement!

 

[LaurenThePartier]

Beautiful stone - and I adore the setting!

 

[kcoursolle]

It''s so beautiful, the pics of the side of the ring are really nice. It looks like it will allow a wedding band to sit flush!

 

[msbean]

thanks everybody!

yes, the stone is definitely more attractive in person. especially when i''m walking under trees and the sunlight is kinda patchy, it scintillates like nothing else! i still find myself staring at it when i think (or hope) nobody is looking!

i totally agree with previous posts here about keeping asschers clean - i can definitely always see when there are fingerprints or ANY type of specks, since asschers are so crystal clear! i haven''t gotten one of those ultrasonic cleaners yet but for the time being i put it in a little jar of jewelry cleaner every morning!

and yes, the setting does allow a band to sit flush

 

[vespergirl]

Hi Msbean!

If you''re looking for a great jewelry cleaner, I love the Jewel Jet steam cleaner - for my asscher, I think it does a better job than an ultrasonic.

And may I just say again that I LOVE YOUR RING!!!

 

[msbean]

thanks vespergirl!!! i will definitely check out the jeweljet - there''s nothing QUITE like a perfectly clean, clear Asscher, is there?

 

[UCLABelle]

YUMMY!!!!!!!!

 

[mara54]

[nycgal]

[musey]

I can''t believe I missed a RA thread!! The ring is just GORGEOUS! ... I am of course biased toward RAs

, but yours is certainly B.E.A.-yootiful!!

 

[Ninama]

You must have size 3 fingers or something, because that diamond looks enormous on you! (I want your gorgeous, poreless, veinless hands!)
